The next few days were torturous. She wanted to be involved in finding and capturing Avery Boggs, both for her own safety and others. But at the same time, she didn't want to defy Gabriel. Instead of ignoring or demeaning her, as she’d thought he might for her foolish mistake, he'd been kind and considerate.

Her thoughts turned to Gabriel so often that she worried about her own sanity. She took on more of the household chores to distract herself. Each day that she remained in the house instead of going to town she counted as a success.

Despite the intimacy of their conversation that day, she didn't hear from Gabriel. Jacob would inform her each night that Avery Boggs had yet to be caught, and that it would be best if Monica stayed out of sight. Each passing day caused her to grow more restless.

One morning as she sorted through the laundry, Ellen walked in with a broad smile. “Mail for you, Monica.” She handed her the letter. “I know that handwriting.”

“Oh yes, from Grandma Mary!” Monica sighed and clutched the letter against her chest. “I've been waiting for this. Will you excuse me, Ellen?”

“Of course, go enjoy.”

She took the letter out to the back porch and gazed at the flowing handwriting. It was easy for her to imagine her grandmother sitting right next to her.

“Never hesitate to learn, my darling. An education of any kind is the most powerful weapon you will ever have.”

She ran her fingertips along the envelope and felt a surge of love flow through her. Though she loved her parents, her relationship with Grandma Mary had always been something unique and special. She knew her grandmother didn't see her as just a granddaughter, she saw her as a woman, and she’d been the key influence in shaping her into a powerful one.

When she opened the envelope, she was surprised to discover a train ticket inside.
